Abstract:

This research is an initiative of the R&D unit at the Department for Jewish and Zionist Education of the Jewish Agency. It represents part of a broader process started at 2001 in order to clarify the ideological objective of the Department vis-à-vis the relationship between Israel and the Diaspora. The research analyzes the standpoint clarification process around the preparation programs for three educational projects under auspices of the Department. This report concentrates on a pilot research directed at one of the projects: the Gvanim Project. (In Hebrew)
